Russell for Boak?

[blue_gun]

Just a rumour I've heard around the traps, but apparently Port are again keen on Russell and Boak wants to make the move to Carlton...to me sounds like a fair enough deal if it eventuated...thoughts?

 

[Alpha1]

Yeah straight swap Boak for Russell.

 

[Chism]

Straight swap No Problem for me. I doubt it will happen though.

 

[lionshine]

Boak is like 10 times better than Russell though. You would have to give your 2nd rounder as well.

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Port would probably have to throw in their first rounder to get the deal over the line.

 

[Loyal2Port]

I seriously hope this is a joke, otherwise my friend you are simply delusional

Boak has achieved several 30+ possessions this year after missing 6 weeks with a knee strain. He is currently our best midfielder.

Your trade would be the equivalent of Marc Murphy for Nick Lower/Michael Pettigrew and I had to check twice to make sure this thread was not on bay 13

Thanks guys, I needed a light hearted laugh and you certainly provided it

T. Boak (whilst missing 6 weeks with a knee)

5th Kicks
4th Handballs
3rd tackles

Russell would lucky to be the 3rd best player in his house

if this eventuates, ill tattoo boak on my face, not a chance

 

[P.A.F.C]

Boak + Hartlett for Fisher and Russell?

 

[Loyal2Port]

Boak + Hartlett for Fisher and Russell?

+1 done

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

Boak + Hartlett for Fisher and Russell?

Tempting. Think you might need to throw in that first-rounder or Pearce as a sweetener though...

 

[gandaal]

Boak + Hartlett for Fisher and Russell?

We'll throw in Bannister just to be nice

I wouldn't want to trade Russell anyway. He's playing good footy at the minute.

Done and Done

Whatever it takes

On a more sombre note, damn I was barracking hard for you guys to beat the cows

 

[Quazza]

would do this in a heart beat. That said, no chance in hell as a straight swap

 

[Sharks On A Plane]

I've just heard a rumour that Port have offered Jake Edwards a three year deal. He's being earmarked as Tredrea's replacement after not getting opportunities at CHF this year, being behind talls Cameron Cloke, Brad Fisher and Adam Hartlett in the pecking order. Carlton are unable to match Port's $$$ and a deal is almost done.

Straight swap for Trengove looking most likely at this stage.

 

[wavefall21]

yes yes yes, lets do the deal, please...........pffft seriously do u think port would be that stupid? boak is all class, as if they would do a straight swap, i do know though that boak was a passionate carlton supporter before getting drafted, i would take him in a heartbeat

 

[ploppy]

boak for gibbs is fair and they both go home..

 

[lukep_86]

boak for gibbs is fair and they both go home..

hahaha that'll never happen. and we won't get boak for a straight swap with russel, it would be awesome if it did happen but that's just wishful thinking

i'm hoping u are taking this piss otherwise u look like the biggest twat to troll these boards. trengove for a start was recruited last year, which means he has a 2 year deal regardless, not to mention the sheer fact he is in the seniors team at the magpies and is looking like the player we are presently lacking, has the mongrel that is needed, and playing superbly, you are clearly dreaming, even more so than the original trade in this thread.

 

[Quazza]

boak for gibbs\

I got this far

 

[goreds]

Yet another Russell bashing thread...

I would have thought he has been one of our most consistant players in the second half of the season...

He has taken the next step and with his confidence growing I would expect a stand out season next year...

 

[Valli]

no way, Boak's a gun and extremely underrated.

 

[Alpha1]

Boak for JR + Fisher and a low draft pick, would this be feasible?

Yes Lightning Rod, I am taking 'this piss'. You're clearly not the sharpest rod in the shed, are you?

 

[Greedy Ralph]

Who gave you the name 'Lightning Rod' was it your 'best mates' from school?
